One of the tests that need to be done to any simulation is the reproducibility of results. Mainly the main aim is to check that the simulation is not generating random results, but actually calculated results that can be reproduced if the exact same conditions are met. This will also allows us to know if the simulation, or the model behind it, are working correctly. The reproducibility of results is most of the times expected when talking about calculated processes in computer science, most programs are expected to work the same under the same circumstances and give the same results.
